Monet’s mouth opened so wide that an egg could be stuffed into it.
She looked at Ye Qingran and then at Chu Yan. They were both gorgeous, one indifferent and the other arrogant. They looked like a perfect couple.
It was a pleasing sight to behold.
Even though one of them was the guy she liked, but she was not jealous at all.
She even felt that these two men were really a good match and that they should be together.
She must have gone crazy, right? ! !
Mo Nainai stared at Ye Qingran and was stunned for a full minute.
She finally calmed down and said pitifully, “You’re lying to me, right?”
Ye Qingran replied firmly, “Nainai, we grew up together and our relationship has always been very good, so I don’t want to lie to you. I really only like men.”
She accused him, “You’re putting on a show.”
Ye Qingran said, “I told you the truth.”
Her pretty face looked like a little white flower that had been battered by the wind and rain.
She felt like crying. “Then what should I do? Those two have agreed to compete fairly with me.”
In the end, Ye Qingran was s.n.a.t.c.hed away by a man.
This was outrageous! !
She glared at Chu Yan with resentment.
Ye Qingran comforted her, “There are many good men in this world. Look at my three elder brothers, they’re pretty good too.”
Monet snorted at him. “I don’t want them.”
Ye Qingran was very nice. “Then, shall I introduce you to someone else?”
Monet glared at Chu Yan with resentment and pouted at Ye Qingran. “I want to be your fake girlfriend, too.”
“I have enough fake girlfriends… and I don’t even need one in a few days. I’m going to break up with them all. Besides, if you were my girlfriend, what would my boyfriend think? I can’t agree.”
“That’s true…” She blurted out.
As she cast another resentful glance toward Chu Yan, she suddenly realized what she had said. She immediately shook her head. “No, no, you can agree. You already have four girlfriends and it’s no big deal to have one more.”
Ye Qingran did not reply to her. Instead, he said, “Nainai, my boyfriend is hungry. I’ll go and have dinner with him.”
Mo Nainai glared at Chu Yan once again with bitterness. Then, she asked Qingran flirtatiously, “What about me?”
Chu Yan, who had received countless resentful glances from her, was speechless
Because of Ye Qingran, he had become a gay.
And because of Ye Qingran, he had received resentment and jealousy from girls.
Ye Qingran’s charm was even greater than his.
She was trouble! !
Ye Qingran said, “Go back to your father. I’ll treat you to a meal this weekend.”
Mo Nainai was silent.
Eat my *ss. The man I like has been stolen by another man.
How can I have the appet.i.te to eat?
Wait, maybe I can s.n.a.t.c.h Ye Qingran back when we eat.
Mo Nainai put away the desolate feeling and raised her little finger. “Pinky swear, don’t go back on your word, or one meal will turn into ten meals.”
“Alright, alright.”
After sending Mo Nainai away, Ye Qingran let out a sigh of relief.
It was a torture.
She was just too charming.
The air around her seemed to be as cold as that in an ice cellar.
Ye Qingran slowly turned her head and looked at Chu Yan who had been silent the whole time.
Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat…
Chu Yan was staring at her without blinking. There was no warmth in his body. His seemingly indifferent eyes were like a whirlpool in the deep sea, looking very dangerous.
It was obvious that he was angry.
Ye Qingran smiled warmly at him. “Brother, it was an emergency. Thank you for your help.”
Chu Yan did not say anything and just walked on.
Ye Qingran quickly followed into their reserved room.
After sitting down, Ye Qingran smiled and poured tea for him.
“Thank you, brother, for helping me out today.” She said softly, hoping he’d not scold her.
Chu Yan looked at her with his dark eyes and took a sip of tea.
He said with a cold expression, “Didn’t you say that your goal is to have 100 girlfriends at the same time? And that you’d let them know of each other’s existence, but they still can’t live without you?”
Ye Qingran smiled awkwardly. “Brother, I was just joking. You have no sense of humor.”
Chu Yan stroked the cup with his fingers and said indifferently, “You shouldn’t use me to refuse them. You can tell her that you already have four girlfriends.”
Ye Qingran replied, “I told her that, but she said that she believed in her charm and that I would definitely choose her in the end. We grew up together, and our families are close and have business partnerships. In all aspects, she is indeed the one with the best prospects.”
“Isn’t that good? If you choose someone, Ruoruo will give up on you.” Chu Yan finished his tea and placed the cup back on the table.
His finger tapped on the side of the cup, gesturing for Ye Qingran to pour tea.
Ye Qingran rejected the suggestion. “No, I will definitely not marry someone I don’t like.”
As she poured tea for Chu Yan, she said, “Brother, don’t be so stingy. As an attractive person, you must often found yourself in such difficult situation. I’ll help you as you helped me today. It won’t cost you anything.”
Chu Yan said, “I don’t need it.”
“Why not?”
Ye Qingran looked at him without blinking.
The corner of her mouth curved slightly and she said teasingly, “Have you forgotten that Xiang Qingtian from the Dragon Palace? If it weren’t for me, you might have become a father by now. But if you told her that you like men, she definitely wouldn’t pester you to marry her. We can cover for each other like this and fend off unwelcome admirers. We can really save each other a lot of trouble. I think it’s a good idea!”
Chu Yan’s voice suddenly lowered. “Aren’t you afraid that people will truly think that you’re gay?”
“I’m not afraid.”
Ye Qingran spread her hands and said indifferently, “I’m not gay to begin with, so I’m not worried at all.”
Chu Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at her. His expression returned to indifference and his voice was cold as he warned, “Don’t use me as an excuse in the future.”
Then he took the menu and opened it, preparing to order.
Ye Qingran was speechless.
She was puzzled. He had looked interested to work with her.
But why was he suddenly unhappy? He had dropped the topic and turned cold all of a sudden.
She look at him carefully, and did not find anything wrong.
Was she imagining things?
